Hey-o. I’ve started work in earnest on my thesis project. It’s a documentary on the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. I put together a little teaser to get my brain working on what style I’m going to take with it. You can view it on Youtube (make sure to choose High Quality). Or you can view it (in low-quality Box-O-Vision) below!
Well well well. That gap of two and a half months is what happens when your plans work a lot better than anticipated. I plotted a crash-course in production for this semester: classes in Digital Video Production, Audio Engineering, Playwriting, and Grantwriting (to pay for it all, of course). I stayed up all night Sunday into Monday finishing the play! I’m done with everything but the grant, now. Turns out that my plan was really hard, so it’s taken me this long to resurface. I figure, now that I’ve got a little more time on my hands, I should fill this space with stuff.
So: stuff!
Here are the videos I made for my video production class. I’m pleased with them! I don’t know if it’s common knowledge that Youtube has an option to watch things in low or high quality, but I just learned this. You should watch these in high quality, since the alternative makes everything look all splotchy and bad.
